Description The next evolutionary link.
With the Red 22, SRAM has updated their top-of-the-line chain for 11-speed compatibility, while shaving weight, and boosting strength.
The slightly narrower profile is precisely optimized for SRAM's 11-speed cassettes, while heavily chamfered outer places reduce noise and ensure reliable shifting performance. A new inner plate finish and chrome hardened pin construction further durability, and like last year's Red chain, HollowPinâ„¢ technology keeps weight to a minimum.
The Red 22 chain is compatible with SRAM and Shimano 11-speed systems. 242 grams, 114 links. Includes the PowerLockâ„¢ silver connector/masterlink. It's pre-lubed with the PowerLubeâ„¢ high performance lubricant.
Please note that SRAM suggests that a new PowerLock connector be used each time the chain is broken and re-connected.

Makes Life Easier
by SF Mac

I love SRAM products, and the Red 22 chain most of all. For me a clean drivechain is important and with the Masterlink included with each chain you can remove and easily clean everything. Once the chain is removed you can also clean the jockey wheels and relube the chain better than their most well known competitors.

The only chain I will ever use
by BikerBoy

I have SRAM Red eTap on different bikes (including a tandem!) and this chain mates perfectly with that setup (even though I'm not using a SRAM crankset on either bike). Clean shifts, long life and quiet make this the best chain I've very used. Top notch!

I use this with my Force 22 setup. Usually get this cheaper than the Force 22 chain. Keep it clean and lubed I get about 5-6K mile of use out of it.

SRAM Red 22 chain
1 of 2 customers found this review helpful.
I have used 6 of these chains on a SRAM RED HRD Drivetrain. Love the master link and easy installation never a stiff link. Chain runs and shifts great.
I get about 1000 miles out of each chain. I weigh 177lbs and climb 10,000 to 12,500 weekly. I typically deep clean (citrus degreaser with a chain cleaner tool) 3 times per life of the chain.

Excellent chain
1 of 6 customers found this review helpful.
I really like this chain because it has 11 speeds. Most chains have no speeds, and when I saw this was an 11 speed chain I quickly bought it. I couldn't be happier! Highly recommended

QUIET
i have used Shimano and other Sram chains over the years but this chain was on sale. I thought I would give it a try. WOW!! This is the quietest and smoothest shifting chain I have ever bought. I am using it on SRAM Force 22 running gear. Highly recommend

I only purchased this chain because it was on a super sale and it seems to be lasting longer that the cheap chains I usually purchase. I'll have to do some mileage tracking to find out if it's true...

Just what I had expected on my new S-Works Tarmac with SRAM Etap shifting, but pricey. I like the quick fastener, but Shimano has switched to them also. Anyway, I went back to Ultegra (for the much lower price) and noticed no difference in performance. Great shifting and longevity.
